Bitcoin Node PSA

Anyyone who is running a Bitcoin Core node version .19 and higher will need to add the peerbloomfilters=1 option to their Bitcoin.conf file if they wish to use their node as a trusted peer for their SPV WALLETS. Apparently this option was deactivated with this version and higher due to a potential for a DDOS attack surface of some kind. I know that this was in the release notes however I missed this and figured there may be some others out there who did as well. I'm sure there are others out there scratching their heads as far as why they can't connect to their notes from the SPV clients so hopefully this will save the community some trouble.

Note you can also white list specific nodes if you didn't want to leave it wide open.

What do people mean when they say there is Bitcoin on the Ethereum Blockchain?

Hypothetically, if Bitcoin Cash overtook Bitcoin, would it take Bitcoin's name with it?

This is a completely hypothetical situation, but if BCH overtook BTC both in price and hashrate, it would indisputably BE Bitcoin from every technical aspect. BCH would then become the longest chain with the most proof of work, and have all the qualities Bitcoin had in 2011, but even better. I remember Vitalik making a tweet where he said that he believes that Bitcoin Cash is a legitimate contender to the name of Bitcoin. Does that mean it'll take Bitcoin's name with it if a flipping were to happen?
